Chapter 432: Handicap
In November, the weather has gradually turned into winter, the temperature is cool, people have added jackets, in the early morning, a few snowflakes fall from the sky, like catkins flying in the air, taking away the freshness of late autumn and bringing the chill of midwinter.
On the Ming family martial arts field, people's liveliness is not affected by the cold scene in winter, the black crowd is crowded around the circular martial arts field, the crowd is excited, and the discussion is in full swing, with the sound of the discussion one after another, the fourteen shili of these conferences officially entered the venue in the four directions of the southeast and northwest and waited for it.
Naturally, the fourteen candidates who attracted the most attention were the fourteen candidates of this competition, no matter how good or bad their reputation was in Zhongtian City before, today they are the pride of the heavens.
Everyone knows that the position of the Nakano City Lord wants to be the rise of another emerging Shili, even if they are all from the original fourteen old Shili, after getting the position of the leader of the Nakano City Lord's election, they will officially enter the center of the peak power of the entire Taixuan Continent, and they will become the new rulers.
Maybe they are not strong enough for the time being, but don't forget, the reason why there is this event is entirely because of the treasure left by the inheritance dragon god in the forgotten territory, even if he is the city lord who is also a puppet of the fourteen shili, people will believe that after becoming the city lord and helping the fourteen shili find the secret, this city lord will be independent forever, as long as he has excellent means, it is not difficult to become famous.
Wasn't that the case with the Zhong family back then?
Just after the hour, the Ming family's martial arts arena was crowded with people, and at this time, many of the fourteen shili were sitting in the audience, and the fourteen family heads also walked to the rostrum and sat down. As the deafening heated discussion reached an unprecedented height, the old lady Feng Rulan, the acting head of the Ming family, slowly stood up.
"Everyone!" Feng Rulan suppressed the noise in the martial arts arena with a clear and dignified voice. As one of the hosts of the competition, under the joint initiative of the thirteen shilis, Feng Rulan served as the executive host of the competition.
In an instant, the Ming family's martial arts arena, which had gathered nearly two thousand martial artists, became silent, and the fourteen focal points of the eyes were withdrawn, and all of them were cast on this old man who was over 85 years old without exception.
"First of all, the old body on behalf of the Ming family and the thirteen heads of the family here welcome you to this grand event, everyone knows that Nakano City has been uncared for since decades ago, and has been harassed by the Ganghai sand pirates many times over the years, and the people are not happy, and the deceased husband has sent my grandson Chengfeng to maintain local law and order, but Zhongtian City is not an extraordinary human country, there are no laws and regulations, and all parties are not allowed to concede, even if they have the heart, they are powerless. Today, we are holding this grand meeting here to find a person with both talent and virtue for the lord of Nakano Castle, to take care of Nakano Castle and benefit the people of Nakano. Presumably you also understand that the leader of this event is equal to the rise of another shili, Taixuanwu Dao is never peaceful, this is an inevitable thing for the people of Wuzhong, so the old body hopes that no matter who this city lord Zuihou is in charge, I hope that he can think more about the people of Nakano City. ”
Feng Rulan's words are thought-provoking, and anyone can see these heart-wrenching words. Everyone present understands that the most important thing in this election is related to the Taixuan Secret Collection, will anyone really take care of Nakano Castle?
Of course not, but Feng Rulan still adheres to the will of her deceased husband, hoping that this city lord can take on the heavy responsibility, and will not only care about digging the secret treasure, but think more about the people, at least there will be no second rampant Henghai sand pirates.
Moreover, many people also heard Feng Rulan's words vaguely reveal deep disdain for this election, but she didn't say it too bluntly, and she gave thirteen shili face.
Feng Rulan's words fell, and the audience was suddenly solemn, no one made a sound, and the silence was terrifying.
Feng Jueyu sat in the team of the Zhu family, and looked deeply at this old man with frost-white hair and sideburns, who was still thinking about the mortal people at this time, which showed Feng Rulan's compassion and couldn't help but have respect.
When it came to more than a dozen family heads with expressionless faces, as if they were deaf, everyone knew that Feng Rulan was deliberately mocking the hypocrisy of this conference, and they didn't take it to heart at all.
Feng Rulan just vented the dissatisfaction in her heart, coupled with the sadness of the death of Ming Dongcheng, it was just a consolation, after a short Jane said, Feng Rulan's expression returned to normal, her eyes swept over the audience, her voice suddenly became more and more majestic, and the voice containing the slightest essence and innocence slowly resounded, and Feng Rulan began to announce the battle list.
"The veteran will announce the list of opponents for this tournament. ”
The previous thought-provoking contemplation was broken by this sentence, and the audience suddenly became noisy, and everyone looked excitedly at the scroll in Feng Rulan's hand, only to hear Feng Rulan say: "The list of opponents for this conference is made up of fourteen people by drawing lots, which are ......"
At this time, everyone's ears were pricked up.
First formation: Feng Jueyu vs. Wang Tianyu.
Second formation: Ming Chengfeng vs. Chen Lin.
Third formation: Jing ruthless against Feng Jun.
Fourth formation: Qi Fangjie vs. Zhong Yuhe.
Fifth formation: Lin Xin vs. Ding Shirong.
Sixth formation: Yuanba vs. Yunzhonglong.
Seventh formation: Lu Zhonghang vs. Cheng Shaojing.
"Wow!"
The list was announced, and the first climax of the whole competition finally appeared, and compared with the atmosphere of heated discussions before, the martial arts hall was even more sensational at this moment. There are a total of 14 shili in this competition, and the first round method adopted must be a knockout round, and everyone naturally knows it, but the knowledge in this list is great.
For example, there were several candidates who were most likely to win in the market before, among which Zhong Yuhe of the Zhong family, Ming Chengfeng of the Ming family, and Jing Wuru of the Jing family are well-deserved top three candidates, and then the Yun family, Yun Zhonglong, and Lu Zhonghang of the Lu family are not generally strong, and then they will not be considered.
After the list was released, several relatively promising masters were separated, which undoubtedly added to the appreciability of the tournament.
The first battle can clearly let people find out the general details of several masters, and the subsequent round of selection will become extremely exciting, especially the rules used in this competition are uninterrupted system, that is to say, no matter the wind or rain, the competition will be held until the selection of the champion and runner-up of zuihou can end, so that day and night, just to meet people's viewing needs, how can everyone not be excited.
Feng Rulan closed the scroll, her pupils closed sharply, and the old man did not lose her majesty, and made a Zuihou speech: "All the martial arts armor of this competition are provided by the Lu family, and all the contestants are not allowed to use family treasures except for qi armor and martial arts, in order to show justice, and now the first two players are invited to play." ”
"Boom!"
The words fell, and when the anxious crowd finally let out an earth-shattering cheer, it was a precursor to the coming of the great battle that the warriors longed for, and it heralded the beginning of a different battle. What makes the crowd excited is that they have been listening carefully to the rules of the competition from beginning to end, and what makes people excited is that from beginning to end, Feng Rulan has never mentioned any words of "point to point", that is to say, the rules of this competition are very relaxed, except for the blades and armor used, every battle will be spared, even bloody.
As martial artists, ornamental competitions do not arouse people's interest, on the contrary, real guns and live ammunition and fighting can affect their inner blood and make them feel worthwhile.
When this kind of ambiguous words come out, everyone will be fools if they don't understand the internal rules, so even those family patriarchs and elders who are confident can't avoid being dignified.
Everyone understands in their hearts that for the general election of the lord of Nakano City, each family has done their best to cultivate candidates, what empowerment and medicine promotion, it is not too much to say that it is done everything, once the competition starts, it is a real master duel, the test is strength, there is no luck at all, and to Zuihou, it is unknown how many of these fourteen candidates can leave the ring intact.
Feng Rulan announced that it was over, and the competition began to kick off towards an unprecedented high atmosphere, Feng Jieyu and Wang Tianyu each walked towards the weapon rack and armor rack to select the blade and armor.
And at this stall, Ding Fatzi came out of the crowd.
Speaking of martial arts, except for the Ding family, there is a junior Ding Shirong who is worthy of his attention, that is, Feng Jueyu, but these two people do not have his business worthy of his attention. For today, Ding Fatzi can be said to have traveled to any corner of the big and small families and Zhongtian City.
"Ding Fatzi, what are the odds of Feng Jueyu and Wang Tianyu?"
The dead fat man actually opened a gambling game, in fact, this is also easy to understand, this kind of competition is not common in Zhongtian City, in the past, the fat man made a living in the gambling and prostitution industry, so of course he can't let go of such an opportunity.
Ding Fat Man smiled, holding a very thick book in his hand, and everyone came around to watch, among which there were inevitably people sent by the heads of the major worlds to inquire about the news.
Ding Fatzi shook his three-inch horizontal eyebrows and smiled, and said loudly without hesitation: "It's open, it's time to bet, the odds of the first single game, Feng Jueyu is one to five, Wang Tianyu, one to one, hehe"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ding Fatzi started his business of buying and selling.
"Five to one, fatty, you're not stupid, are you? Can you still make money doing this?" said someone next to him.
Crowd hahadaxiao.
As we all know, those who can participate in the general election are the leaders of the major families, what empowerment is essential, Wang Tianyu has had the Xuanwu Consummation Realm before, if he accepts the empowerment, the real strength is unknown, there is a certain insider involved, and a few days ago, it was rumored that Wang Tianyu's cultivation was at least above the high level of Tianwu.
As for Feng Jueyu, it turned out that he had the Lingwu Realm and the Xuanwu Realm, and according to someone who inquired, he had been living in Dingxin during this time, and the Zhu family did not have a master to help him improve his cultivation, so that it would be easy to distinguish which was stronger and which was weaker.
